First Look: Jeremy Renner in CIA Scheme Drama 'Kill the Messenger'

Earlier this year, we heard about a project called Kill the Messenger starring Jeremy Renner. "Homeland" director Michael Cuesta was behind the film that doesn't paint the CIA in the best light as it follows the agency's scheme to craft a smear campaign to ruin the reputation of journalist Gary Webb (Renner) after he linked the CIA to a scheme to arm Contra rebels in Nicaragua and import cocaine into California. Now some first look photos from the film have arrived with Renner looking like a very intrepid journalist. The cast also includes Tim Blake Nelson, Oliver Platt, Michael Sheen, Robert Patrick, Barry Pepper, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Andy Garcia, Rosemarie DeWitt and many more. Look!
